Developer RiDan has cranked out several iOS jailbreak tweaks as part of his FunWeek project. The idea is based on Ryan Petrich's TweakWeek 2, which aims to bring iOS customizations to Cydia at breakneck speed. RiDan's latest creation provides a quick way to skip over many home screens and speed up access to the first and last pages.

SBPageSwipe is so simple there are no options to configure. Once installed, swiping over the page dots at the bottom of the home screen will shortcut directly to the first or last home screens on your device. Instead of having to swipe several times to get to the end, the same feat can be accomplished with a single gesture thanks to SBPageSwipe.

Apple sent an email to customers letting them know that the iPhone 5s will be available through its online store at 12:01 a.m. PST on September 20, 2013. iOS fans will also be able to pick up the next-generation handset at their local Apple store at 8 a.m. on the same day.

The iPhone 5s will be available in silver, gold, and space gray for $199 (16GB), $299 (32GB) and $399 (64GB) with a two year contract from AT&T, Verizon Wireless or Sprint. T-mobile customers will be able to nab the 16GB model for $99 down via Apple.com or T-Mobile.com.

All four major U.S. carriers are now accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 5c. You can pre-order the colorful handset from AT&T, Verizon Wireless, Sprint or Apple for $99 (16GB) and $199 (32GB). T-Mobile is also accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 5c through T-Mobile.com. The 16GB model is zero dollars down, plus 24 monthly payments of $22. The 32GB model is $99 down, plus 24 monthly payments of $22.91. The iPhone 5c is also launching in ten other countries today, and international carriers like Rogers in Canada have already started taking "reservations" for the new phone.

The iPhone 5c is available in green, white, yellow, red and blue. It is powered by Apple's A6 chip and boasts an 8MP iSight camera and 4-inch Retina display. It is also LTE capable and includes all of Apple's popular features like Siri and FaceTime.

T-Mobile has officially announced its pricing plans for Apple's next-generation devices. The carrier will begin accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 5c on September 13, 2013 through T-Mobile.com for zero dollars down, plus 24 monthly installments of $22. That makes the T-Mobile model $21 less than Apple's off-contract iPhone 5c price of $549

The iPhone 5s will be available on September 20, 2013 for $99 down, plus 24 monthly payments of $22.91 for a total of $648.84. That's around the same price as Apple's contract free model. AT&T, Verizon Wireless and Sprint will be offering the same 16GB model for $199 with a two year contract, and the 16GB iPhone 5c will cost you $99 through those same carriers.

Walmart has announced that it will offer the 16GB iPhone 5c for $79 and the 16GB iPhone 5s for $189. $20 is a pretty substantial discount for a new Apple product, and the $79 price point makes the iPhone 5c actually sound affordable. Both deals require that you sign a new two year contract with either AT&T, Verizon Wireless or Sprint, and are in-store only. You may want to call ahead to verify prices and availability before heading down to your local Walmart, in case they sell out.

Apple will begin accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 5c on September 13, 2013. The plastic iPhone will be available in lime green, white, yellow, red and blue starting at $99 for the 16GB model, and $199 for the 32GB model. Apple is not accepting pre-orders for the iPhone 5s. It will be available in space gray, silver and gold at your local Apple store starting at 8:00 a.m. on September 20.
